Anyone for a 6 lb. Burger?

#1 Postby BEER980 » Sun Dec 12, 2004 9:30 pm

A 6 lb. Burger. Where's the beef? It's at a Pennsylvania pub that serves the world's biggest burger — weighing in at NINE lip-smacking pounds! That's no whopper — you can actually get this meat monster for $23.95, loaded with all the fixings: Two whole tomatoes, a half-head of lettuce, 12 slices of American cheese, a full cup of peppers, two entire onions, plus, a river of mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard.

Denny's (not to be confused with the national chain restaurants of the same name) offers prizes for customers who can completely consume one of their big burgers within a designated time period: a T-shirt, certificate, and 50% discount for anyone who finishes a Challenger (2 lb. burger) within an hour; a T-shirt, certificate, and 100% discount for anyone who can polish off a Baby Boy (3 lb. burger) in 90 minutes or less; and something special for anyone who manages the unthinkable and puts away a whole 96er (6 lb. burger) in under three hours. (That "something special" has yet to be awarded, as no one has so far successfully accomplished the feat.)

I've been wanting to go there to just see the 6lb burger. My wife and I talked about going before we moved to Pittsburgh over the summer. I don't think I could actually eat it, but it would be interesting to see it.

I can't even finish off a regular checkers, there is always one bite I can't seem to put away. I can't imagine a burger that big.

Cookiely, that's sad. =......(

Maybe one day you will have food eating capabilities to rival my own. Remember, winter is here and we've got to get as much as possible before the snow covers everything.

Oh man... I'm going in for surgery today and haven't been able to eat anything. Starvation... imminent.... que horror

Kevin - sad? No way - cookiely, that's healthy eating, IMHO! I rarely eat beef, but if I order a burger, it's junior size. Same with Arby's - never a regular sized Arby sandwich, a Jr Arby for me. With of course a side salad.....

This country's eating portions are just way out of whack! When I saw this topic go up, I swear I wanted to munch on a carrot stick! I'm being serious here....
